Abstract

The present disclosure, in some embodiments, relates to a memory device. The memory device includes a bottom electrode via and a bottom electrode over a top of the bottom electrode via. A data storage layer is over the bottom electrode and a top electrode is over the data storage layer. A top electrode via is on an upper surface of the top electrode and is centered along a first line that is laterally offset from a second line centered upon a bottommost surface of the bottom electrode via. The first line is perpendicular to the upper surface of the top electrode and parallel to the second line.
